France needs help !



Even after watching this video a second time, I still feel like crying at about minute 8.30. 

Blondie from U-Tube is addressing this cry for help to the French Minister of the Interior, Manuel Valls who, at the start of Hollande's mandate held so much promise; for many he was the only hope in this far left government. But, in less than a year his wings had been clipped, and he had paid for his political survival by near complete submission to what I consider the dark side. 

Video published on Riposte Laique with an article by Mireille Greschter.












Al Gore where is thy shame?

Australia Votes: Labor





With apologies to the Gospel of Matthew:  "You live by the knife-in-the-back, you die by the knife-in-the-back". This is what happened recently to Australia's first female Prime Minister, Julia Gillard. Not to  put too fine a point on it: Gillard knifed the sitting Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd who, three years later returned the favour by challenging her for the Leadership, a challenge he won he won just a few weeks ago.






I actually like Kevin Rudd, and I certainly  understand the desire for revenge, I just don't want him as my Prime Minister, nothing personal...it's party-political ;)


Gillard was surrounded by a militantly feminist support group (also known as her "handbag hit squat") and together they not only played the sexism victim card, but maxed it out. Some people, a little less cynical than I am,  were surprised that not ONE of her strident  political sisters showed any solidarity with the first female Australian prime minister during her demise, hanging onto power rather than showing loyalty to the sisterhood.

In the euphoria of regaining his place in the sun, Kevin Rudd asked  everyone to "be a little kinder". No trace left of this 'kindness' now, as there are just 3 weeks to go  before election day on the 7. September 2013:

Israel: Give War a Chance






"In one of the most famous events in the Bible, G-d commanded Abraham to sacrifice his only son. So Abraham took his son Isaac, bound him on an altar and prepared to bring him up as a burnt offering. And then the voice of the angel called to him and told him not to harm his son.

G-d did not want human sacrifices. The peace process does."

So begins one of the most insightful, poetic, poignant, brilliant articles written about this charade, imposed upon Israel by Obama and his mates, euphemistically called "the peace process".  Daniel Greenfield titles his article  "Sacrifices of Peace". I think, Greenfield is one of the most brilliant writers alive today and I urge you to read this piece.


"In the spring, America's prince of peace, the man who had thrown thousands of American soldiers with their hands tied behind their backs into the arms of the Taliban...[...]...came to Jerusalem to demand that the altars once again be raised up and the blood of peace flow over the negotiating tables..." 


"...The ceremonial release of terrorists with blood on their hands commenced this festival of negotiations" is how Greenfield describes the demand  on Israel to release more than 100 killers who deliberately murdered babies, children, mothers, elders. At least, to his credit "Netanyahu did it reluctantly", he writes. Netanyahu, more than anyone else knows that these murdering terrorists will be feted as "heroes" before returning to kill again - they always do.


Do read it all here  where you will also find the responses, one of which impressed me so much that I dont want you to miss it:


"...what is Netanyahu's defence? As he faces the likes of Obama, Hilary Clinton, John Kerry and Tony Blair, why does he kneel to their agenda? He knows they are all sellouts, Saudi and Qatari funded whores. They can do nothing to the Jewish people beyond causing some minor inconvenience.
 The problem I see is that the Jewish leadership is at the moment incapable of overcoming their rationality, they find it almost impossible to believe and truly understand that they are the subject of totally irrational religious hatred. No concessions can ever overcome this. The only answer for Israel is to "give war a chance". Victory in war depends on two things: 1. You must control the ground over which the war was fought, and 2. You must change the enemy's mind about attacking you. 
Israel has had no problem achieving the first condition but has never achieved the second. This has to change and it has to change by causing so much pain to the Arabs that they concede victory to Israel. The problem is that in order to achieve this, Israelis must embrace insanity, because total war is by definition insane. 
Can the Jewish people do this?
If they cannot, then they are finished. "












Being anti-Israel does not have to mean one is antisemetic.
 It just always does. (Eeyore)




Update: 14.8.2013 
List published on J-Wire of some terrorists, released by Israel today, to murder some more.

GO BIBI GO !

This is more like the Benjamin Netanyahu, I like - the one of whom the following little story was told, when the West, mistakenly gave Obama the keys to the White house (mind you, the way his competitors - Clinton and  McCain have since behaved, perhaps history will judge him as the "lesser evil"):

Obama: "yes we can" 
Netanyahu: "no, you won't".

Che Guevara is dead, get over it


Recently I met someone who, a priory, would probably tick all the boxes necessary to belong in the fold of the Left. I told him so and asked him why he is so obviously and publicly swimming against the effluent of political correctness. He told me: "I was of the Left".  "So what happened?" I asked, "I have not changed, but the Left has", he said. 

I am not so sure that "the glorified Left' of yesteryear has changed all that much, other than becoming very much the sneeringly cocky default position of the Nietzschean herd.




THE SCHMALTZIFIED PAST:








THE HISTORICAL PAST

"...Che was a totalitarian. He achieved nothing but disaster. Many of the early leaders of the Cuban Revolution favoured a democratic-socialist direction for the new Cuba. But Che was a mainstay of the hard line pro-Soviet faction, and his faction won. Che presided over the Cuban Revolution’s first firing squads. He founded Cuba’s “labor camp” system — the system that was eventually employed to incarcerate gays, dissidents and AIDS victims...."




 CHE ABOUT KILLING HIS OWN PEOPLE:

"We must say here something that is a well-known truth and that we have always asserted before the whole world: executions? Yes, we have executed people; we are executing people and shall continue to execute people as long as it is necessary". 
(As translated by the UN from the Spanish original: “Nosotros tenemos que decir aquí lo que es una verdad conocida, que hemos expresado siempre ante el mundo: fusilamientos; si, hemos fusilado; fusilamos y seguiremos fusilando mientras sea neoesario.”)

THE END


Love

    Close to me and kiss me to the core

Love’s Philosophy

by

 Percy Bysshe Shelley


The fountains mingle with the river
   And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix for ever
   With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
   All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle.
   Why not I with thine?—

See the mountains kiss high heaven
   And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
   If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth
   And the moonbeams kiss the sea:
What is all this sweet work worth
   If thou kiss not me? 






















Taliban Banana


Malala, then 15, was gravely wounded by masked gunmen who singled her out as she returned home in a school bus in Pakistan’s north-west Swat Valley.

The shooting sparked worldwide condemnation and Malala was flown to Britain for treatment. She recovered, in fact,  she has recovered so well that she was able to give a speech at the UN in New York on her 16th birthday declaring that she has new courage to fight for the right of all children to have a free education.






I don't need to reproduce her speech here, it went around the world and caused many tears, some genuinely sentimental, some more camera-huggingly photogenic from the usual suspects parked on the seats at the UN. (UN=NationsUnitedAgainstTheOriginalMeaningOfHumanRights).

The reason that I post this here is that, like Jane Austen's universally acknowledged truth that a single man in possession of a good fortune was in want of a wife, so was I in want of a pretext to play a little parodic song about the Taliban. Weeelll, I think the excuse I needed came with this Talibanian apology to our heroine:



"Taliban attacked you, was it islamically correct or wrong, or you were deserved to be killed or not, I will not go in this argument now, let’s we leave it to Allah All mighty, He is the best judge (sic) ...."

So wrote Taliban commander Adnan Rasheed seen here in what I suspect to be a rather flattering photo:




And he specified the reasons for the shooting of the little school girl like so: 


"First of all please mind that Taliban never attacked you because of going to school or you were education lover, ...[snip]... Taliban believe that you were intentionally writing against them and running a smearing campaign to malign their efforts to establish Islamic system in swat and your writings were provocative".

Read the whole letter and watch the videos here, while I will  cynically use this excuse to play the  song before it will become  a "truth universally acknowledged" that Osama Bin Laden was really  a holy trinity of Hero+Victim+Messiah all  rolled into one.

Eye Candy ;)



A tale of two Cities Cultures:




Food for thought of what can lurk behind a burka:

 





VladTepes calls this "Just a great picture" - I agree :)



Déshabillez-moi, déshabillez-moi
Oui, mais pas tout de suite, pas trop vite
Sachez me convoiter, me désirer, me captiver
Déshabillez-moi...
Undress me, undress me
Yes, but not immediately, not too fast
Know how to covet me, how to desire me, how to captivate me
Undress me…

POTUS, PUTIN and boobs



The more I see of Obama...










 ...the more I like Vladimir Putin.













The photo below comes from an article about a  Femen protest, (h/t VladTepes). I don't feel in a mood serious enough to make any political comment other than to recommend that any Western woman intending to mary into Islam should first  read books like  "Not Without My Daughter". I simply  found this picture with Vladimir Putin's and Angela Merkel's  respective expressions irresistible.

Joan of Arc or Marine LePen?

You have met this beautiful young French woman in my previous post. For me, she represents what makes France still beautiful. I bet she is no-one's door mat, yet she remains feminine. She is as courageous as they come (read the threats against her neck in the last post). She looks a bit like Marine LePen looked in her early youth, I think. My vote for the next Model of "Marianne"* goes to this brave "Blondie from Youtube".


































(*)The official busts of Marianne initially had anonymous features, appearing as women of the people. From 1969, however, they began to take on the features of famous women, starting with the actress Brigitte Bardot.[2] She was followed by Mireille Mathieu (1978), Catherine Deneuve (1985)

The new French Resistance

There is a real  groundswell against the far left  Government of  Francois Hollande  who  owes far too great a debt  to those who are intent on transforming secular France (once called  "Fille ainée de l'Eglise")  into a "submissive daughter of  Islam". It  is  not yet allowed any oxygen in the main media who, in the majority,  are mere mouthpieces of a rather frightened political elite, but you are seeing this resistance emerge in online papers, on  blogs, on  twitter, on face book and on personal videos. Like for example the video of  this young woman who posts as "La Blonde de Youtube" and who here, in five minutes, articulates courageously some  politically incorrect truths on immigration, integration, jihadists returning to France  from Syria etc that  Le Monde would never face, let alone publish.

She is neither of the Right nor of  the Left, she says; "I am here for my country, who is in serious danger, I am a patriot".  She feistily tells those who threaten her with death by throat-cutting: "Et bien, ecoutez-Messieurs: Je vous attends"

 "It is encouraging and refreshing that a dynamic youth is joining us in our combats to save France" writes Djamila GERARD from Riposte Laique where I found this video:

The racist lynching of George Zimmerman


Living under a rock, and not an American one at that, I  had only vaguely heard  of  the 'Zimmerman Case' without really listening.  Apparently there was a wall-to-wall media coverage of the court case, something of  an 'O.J. Simpson Case' mirror image. When I heard the American President implicitly condemn George Zimmerman before and now after the trial, I was slightly disturbed and then I found this video on Vlad's Blog. Seeing our tax-payer funded media (who lean so much to the left that their default position is practically horizontal) taking the same slant as Obama, I put my chair  firmly next to George Zimmerman's.

Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, will - once again - be used and abused, but although, America is now a nation that has a black President, due in no small part to the colour of his skin, I think that for George Zimmerman, this part of Martin Luther King's speech has not been fulfilled:




"...I have a dream that my four little children
will one day live in a nation 
where they will not be judged by the color of their skin
but by the content of their character..."





This video is confronting btw.

Update 2Family saved by George Zimmerman grateful but afraid of threats.

Update 3Pamela Geller's take on this:

Update 4: A black on (Australian) white murder - no self defence, just boredom and racism. Not a peep out of Obama. Does that make the POTUS a one-way racist? Or are all racists "one-way"?
